Yep! Excellent recipe. Also goes well with lemon curd or rowanberry jam.

Or Vegemite.

I really need to try this! Soda bread rocks; I eat it with just a healthy smear of butter.

I wonder if I have any wheat germ around the house . . .


Last week I made corn bread in a cheap-ass cast iron skillet I got at a “tool faire.” The side of the pan developed a 1/2" crack in it, making it ideal for baking use. It has begun to get a decent glossy patina.

Cast iron skillet baking? I am in!
Must try this before March 17 St. Paddy’s day.

Remember a pot holder as you remove skillet from oven, or you will learn regret.

I don’t have photos, but I removed the top of a turkey pan the wrong way once. The steam scar took six years to heal.

Stay away from the green beer and whiskey shots.

I’m a retired chef, and the nasty steam / heat burns I’ve witnessed are many, OUCH!
